In the mid 70's I remember seeing an ex-CN C-Liner at the Ontario Science Museum (It was painted in the old CN scheme) along with a bunch of electrics. I know they have a CP C-liner there now but does anyone know what happened to the CN locomotive that was there ?

The Canada Science & Technology Museum in Ottawa http://www.sciencetech.technomuses.ca/e ... /rail6.cfm still has a CLC CPA16-4. It is ex-CP 4065. Formerly from CPs historical collection. CNs first GE is here (it was built in 1916) too. I couldnt find a CN CLC unit on their website, though.

Thanks for the update. I saw that the CP unit was on their web site. However, I have a picture taken in 1976 at a Museum near Toronto or perhaps Hamilton with both an FA and a C-Liner painted in the original CN scheme. The CP units were just being pulled from service when I was at this museum as I saw them later that month in Calgary.
